the MAROON Vol. XXXVIII, No. 14 Loyola University, New Orleans, La Friday, March 11, 1960 Southern Educator Says Universities Also Understaffed By MATT RACKI 'Standing Room Only' "Standing room only" said the dean. Our colleges are over-crowded, understaffed, and in desperate straits to confront the dozens of two-legged problems that stare teachers in the eyeballs every Monday morning. Dr. Paul Vonk, dean of the University College, University of Miami, directed these views under the title "A Place To Stand," toward the 22nd annual Louisiana College Conference Saturday According to Professor Vonk, the University of Miami is no exception to the rule that today's colleges and universities are overcrowded and understaffed. He stated that in America, there are people who believe that the overenrollment problem should be remedied by limiting the number of students now in centers of higher education to the rich, the powerful, and the like. He condemned this solution as a violation of our basic principle that every American citizen has the right to be educated to the fullest extent of his ability. The limited teaching resources in America today are of prime concern to Professor Vonk. He stated that "there are those who believe that higher education will benefit enormously if higher salaries are offered to attract more qualified teachers. However, higher salaries do not insure the degree of capability of these teachers. "More capable teachers are certainly sought after by thousands of our colleges and universities," declared Professor Vonk. He also made it clear, that as a teacher himself, he is in no way opposed to the idea of higher salaries for teachers. He is in favor of it and stated that efforts to obtain higher salaries should be increased. Turning to the problems facing the University of Miami, Professor Vonk explained how they are being met and solved. Students at Miami are given courses which help them to discover wherein their interests lie, and thus obtain a degree which will fulfill these interests. To carry out the policy, the university has three aims: (1) To procure more effective teachers and taeching methods; (2) To use more «fficient ■ ways to educate students (radio, television, etc.). (3) To retain a larger number of DR. PAUL K. VONK students lost to academic courses under the old system. Vonk stressed a focal point in the future of college education in closed-circuit television. He fully subscribes to its value as a method of communication from instructor to student. In support of his belief*. Professor Vonk cites the regulation at Miami which require* alll students to attend two lecture* a week via closed-circuit television. He also asserts that the problem of finding capable teacher* will be alleviated by the use of television. With television, one teacher will be able to instruct a student audience of unlimited size. Dr. Vonk shares the opinions of many of his colleagues that most collage students are far below average when it conies to communicating through the written woid. To remedy this situation, he proposes that a student's paper be graded in the student's presence, thus enabling the student to become familiiar with his mistakes and receive on the spot instructions to avoid errors in the future. DR. PAUL K. VONK Cafe Cuts Sandwich Prices By Five Cents A five cent reduction in the price of sandwiches in the cafeteria went into effect Wednesday after a meeting of the student council with Mr. Tom Preston, director of business operations for the university. This represents a reduction of five cents from the price of sandwiches which do not have lettuce and tomatoes. Mr. Preston said that the price cut came about after his special meeting with the student council cafeteria committee on Monday. He said that this is the only way that problems of this kind can be solved. Bill Caldwell, chairman of the council cafe committee, said that Mr. Preston was very willing to take the student complaints and give them to the cafeteria management in order to find a possible solution. Mr. Preston said that all the complaints that were given him have now been taken care of. "The diluted catsup has been eliminated; the coffee pot has been fixed and a better grade of lard had been purchased for cooking hamburgers," Mr. Preston said. In regard to the two-day boycott of the cafe, Mr. Preston said that it had no effect on the cafeteria. He stressed that the only way to settle any differences with the cafeteria is through the student council "in an orderly manner as demonstrated by the committee meeting Monday."

the MAROON Vol. XXXVIII, No. 14 Loyola University, New Orleans, La Friday, March 11, 1960 Southern Educator Says Universities Also Understaffed By MATT RACKI 'Standing Room Only' "Standing room only" said the dean. Our colleges are over-crowded, understaffed, and in desperate straits to confront the dozens of two-legged problems that stare teachers in the eyeballs every Monday morning. Dr. Paul Vonk, dean of the University College, University of Miami, directed these views under the title "A Place To Stand," toward the 22nd annual Louisiana College Conference Saturday According to Professor Vonk, the University of Miami is no exception to the rule that today's colleges and universities are overcrowded and understaffed. He stated that in America, there are people who believe that the overenrollment problem should be remedied by limiting the number of students now in centers of higher education to the rich, the powerful, and the like. He condemned this solution as a violation of our basic principle that every American citizen has the right to be educated to the fullest extent of his ability. The limited teaching resources in America today are of prime concern to Professor Vonk. He stated that "there are those who believe that higher education will benefit enormously if higher salaries are offered to attract more qualified teachers. However, higher salaries do not insure the degree of capability of these teachers. "More capable teachers are certainly sought after by thousands of our colleges and universities," declared Professor Vonk. He also made it clear, that as a teacher himself, he is in no way opposed to the idea of higher salaries for teachers. He is in favor of it and stated that efforts to obtain higher salaries should be increased. Turning to the problems facing the University of Miami, Professor Vonk explained how they are being met and solved. Students at Miami are given courses which help them to discover wherein their interests lie, and thus obtain a degree which will fulfill these interests. To carry out the policy, the university has three aims: (1) To procure more effective teachers and taeching methods; (2) To use more «fficient ■ ways to educate students (radio, television, etc.). (3) To retain a larger number of DR. PAUL K. VONK students lost to academic courses under the old system. Vonk stressed a focal point in the future of college education in closed-circuit television. He fully subscribes to its value as a method of communication from instructor to student. In support of his belief*. Professor Vonk cites the regulation at Miami which require* alll students to attend two lecture* a week via closed-circuit television. He also asserts that the problem of finding capable teacher* will be alleviated by the use of television. With television, one teacher will be able to instruct a student audience of unlimited size. Dr. Vonk shares the opinions of many of his colleagues that most collage students are far below average when it conies to communicating through the written woid. To remedy this situation, he proposes that a student's paper be graded in the student's presence, thus enabling the student to become familiiar with his mistakes and receive on the spot instructions to avoid errors in the future. DR. PAUL K. VONK Cafe Cuts Sandwich Prices By Five Cents A five cent reduction in the price of sandwiches in the cafeteria went into effect Wednesday after a meeting of the student council with Mr. Tom Preston, director of business operations for the university.

Bill Caldwell, chairman of the council cafe committee, said that Mr. Preston was very willing to take the student complaints and give them to the cafeteria management in order to find a possible solution. Mr. Preston said that all the complaints that were given him have now been taken care of. "The diluted catsup has been eliminated; the coffee pot has been fixed and a better grade of lard had been purchased for cooking hamburgers," Mr. Preston said. In regard to the two-day boycott of the cafe, Mr. Preston said that it had no effect on the cafeteria. He stressed that the only way to settle any differences with the cafeteria is through the student council "in an orderly manner as demonstrated by the committee meeting Monday."
